Follow along with Nina, age 9, and Ruby, age 8, and learn how to make scratch art using crayons.
Materials:
Listen beautiful relax classics on our Youtube channel.
• card stock
• crayons
• paper clip or toothpick
Instructions:
1. Use light-colored crayons to completely cover the card stock. You may want to make a striped or geometric pattern.
2. Cover the light-colored crayon with black crayon, filling the entire card. Darken it as much as possible to create a good contrast.
3. Think about a design you’d like to create.
4. Use a toothpick or the end of a partly unfolded paper clip to scratch through the black crayon, revealing your design in the colors underneath.
